Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The main dining room was brilliant, but we were disappointed with the speciality restaurant chops grille the service was poor , too slow with food and drink not worth paying for the food was lovely but the only difference in the main dining room were the cuts of meat steak etc , but you could order them in the main dining room for a surcharge which was still cheaper. The windjammer had a great choice of food and as my husband is coeliac they went above and beyond to make him gluten free food both there and in the main dining room.

Chop's Grille

Not happy at all booked for my birthday and didn’t even get a happy birthday off anyone , my husband is gluten free and they weren’t very accommodating at s service was slow would never go again. Not worth the money main dining room was better
